Brewers @ Cubs Game One

The Dale Sveum (sp?) Era begins tonight for the Milwaukee Brewers as they travel to Wrigley for a three game set against the Cubs. This three game set is followed by a three game set at Miller Park in about ten days. Needless to say, these six games could determine whether or not the Brewers make it to the post season. Chicago is all but assured of a spot with their magic number at 6.

Should be a fun game to watch with CC Sabathia and Ryan Dempster on the bump for the Brewers and Cubs respectively. The Brewers will be pressing a bit, but also can play with relatively no pressure now that they fired their manager…it all depends on how the players internalize the situation. The Phillies who are tied for the Wild Card lead “tee off” an hour ahead of this game, so the Brewers will have one eye on the scoreboard all night as well. The Cubs could be positioned for a letdown of sorts after a no-no by Carlos Zambrano and a near no-no by Ted Lilly. The Cubs bats however have woken up the last two games.

We will be here to chat the game later today.

MikeyCHX (Less than a minute ago) Report Violation at this rate…i am drinking one beer per inning

And you sir, will be drunk.

Reminds me of when Winston Churchill was dining with Lady Astor and she claimed after one of Winston’s off color remarks, that “You, sir are drunk”. Winston replied “But I shall be sober in the morning, and you madame will still be ugly!!”

A guy goes into a bar and orders a martini and slams it down. He orders 2 more and dispatches those as well. In between martinis, the bartender notices he keeps looking in his pocket. When the guy orders his 4th martini, the bartender brings it to the counter and the guy peeks into his pocket. The bartender says, “Hey , it’s really none of my business but why do you keep looking in your pocket?” The guy says, no problem. “I have a picture of my wife in there and when she starts to look good, I know it’s safe to go home!!”
